Nema was a tall lanky man. He wore what looked to be a coat of foliage that wasn’t closed down the middle exposing his frail chest, his ribs stretched against his skin. Adorned on his legs we cargo pants that stretched to his knees in a camo pattern, with his feet bound by bandages. He Pulled a sharp rod that twisted into a point from a bandolier across his chest. He then put it into the two-meter long bamboo rod “Let us see if this target will be an easy one…”
Jeanne breathed heavily from behind the onion dome roof fixture. “Shit. That must be one of the Pure Gold agents…That Guy before mentioned they were stationed around the city right? It’d make sense that would mean the most key locations…Which Means Noir and Kale are going to be facing one of these guys too…Let's just hope Kirk and Dezzi have an easier time…But the likelihood of them coming face to face with one of these guys is high!!” She spoke aloud out of nervousness as she dug through her satchel when suddenly a loud BAM was heard on the far side of the dome!
Nema had used one of his shots to try and coax Jeanne from her spot. But had merely caused the Sniper to cover her ears in fear. “Shit!”
’Focus! Focus! I gotta shut down that Array! It’ll lighten the load for everyone!’ She then spoke out loud “They’re all relying on me!”
Digging through her bag once more she moved out of the way a variety of items before making contact with what she looked for. In her palms lied the Smoke Bombs that Mar-Syl had given her. “Perfect!”
Pulling a lighter she always carried on her she lit the Fuse on the collection of smoke bombs, sparks shooting from the fuse as it quickly ate away at the cord before igniting the inside and emitting a plume of purple smoke!
“Purple Piper!”
She tossed two smoke bombs to either side of her, creating a wall of smoke giving her cover!
“What the-?” Said the Opposing sniper as he watched from the tower as the clouds filled the rooftop! His eyes darting around to where the Markswoman had gone when suddenly, BANG!!
Archie released steam from its vents as a Steel Barring impacted the side of Nema's head! Causing a trail of red to course down his forehead!
“What The Hell?!” Nema looked around on the rooftop! ‘Where’d she go?! She couldn’t have gone far!’ He thought to himself as another projectile slammed into the wall just past his head! His eyes looked to the embedded steel bearing and traced its trajectory to the roof of a building a couple dozen meters from where she’d been!
“Gotch’ya…” She gave a nervous smile as she reloaded Archie with another barring and began to fill the Weapon with steam, the distinct ‘Tssssss’ of its internal pipes building pressure resounded.

Nema dug into his own satchel and pulled out a cylindrical object, it had a fuse and a pin at its top with paper wrapping around it! He quickly pulled the pin as Jeanne didn’t hesitate to fire off another projectile right at him! Nema Released the object and suddenly a huge flash of light filled Jeanne's goggles! It was a Flash Bomb!
She turned her head away and winced in discomfort, dipping behind the wall where she was, she was disoriented, her vision tunneled as she tried to focus her eyes!
It took a few moments, but slowly the Markswoman's sight came back. She couldn’t risk peaking over the edge again. ‘He could be in the same spot and will take my head clean off! That weapon’s crazy strong…It’s gotta be at least five times stronger than archie…’ it was just a rough guess, but the compared force was certainly wide in comparison
Jeanne dug in her Bag again, hands wracked with feat as she pulled out another smoke bomb from the Queen Mar-Syl. Who unbeknownst to her was in the middle of combat with her Crewmate!
“Purple Piper…!” She whispered as Purple smoke filled the rooftop. Nema was keenly looking at what moved from within the smoke. To the left an Object landed, a can! It was bait that Nema had anticipated, He adjusted his aim to the right and filled his cheeks, his weapon “Probe” Was ready!
This weapon was Unique, it was a Bamboo Stick that was hollowed out and two meters along, and had the unique ability of Enlarging the Objects within them once they left the opposite end, and with the mighty speed and strength of Nema’s Breath, it meant that these Projectiles hit almost as hard as a cannon and faster than one too! He was the Physically weakest of the Pure Gold Agents, but compared to any average Agent he’d outsmart and beat any number of them!
“There…” He spoke in a low flat tone as he watched Jeanne exit from the other Side of the cloud! THOOM! The spike exited the end and enlarged many times and flew through the air right towards Jeanne!
Blood shot from Jeannes Left arm as she Clattered to the Floor of the Building she aimed for! Her bones were shattered! Bright Crimson running down her shoulder as the Large Spike was impaled into her!
"AGH!” The Markswoman let out a scream of pain as she roughly tumbled against the sandstone roof. Blood poured from her shoulder as she shakily brought a hand to her shoulder. Wincing in pain as the contact caused stings to shoot through her.
